Definitions
- the invention relates to a header connector and a method of producing a header connector.
- header connectors are used in the automotive industry for connecting to a counterpart connector.
- header connectors are used for distributing power and/or data in a vehicle.
- header connectors comprise multiple interface portions.
- Each interface portion defines a receptacle to receive a portion of a counterpart connector.
- the number of pins, the size of the pins and the number of interface portions are flexible to comply with respective requirements. For example, for different applications or type of vehicles a different number of interface portions may be required.
- Gluing an interface portion to the frame to form a header connector has as disadvantage that additional material with adhesive properties is mandatory. Additional equipment is needed to place glue at predefined regions of the interface portion and the frame.
- Ultrasonic welding requires dedicated equipment (sonotrode) for generating ultrasonic vibrations.
- Laser welding requires dedicated thermoplastic material with laser transparent properties in order to assemble the frame to the interface portion.
- FR 2757690 shows a header connector according to the preamble of claim 1.
- An object of the invention is to reduce the above mentioned drawbacks or to at least provide an alternative.
- a header connector for mechanically and electrically connecting to a counterpart connector which comprises a frame comprising a top surface.
- the top surface when the header connector is connected to the counterpart connector, faces the counterpart connector.
- the top surface comprises at least two recesses for receiving an interface portion.
- the header connector comprises at least two interface portions each respectively received in the at least two recess.
- Each interface portion comprises a bottom wall and side walls protruding perpendicular away from the top surface and the bottom wall.
- the side walls and the bottom wall define a receptacle with an opening for receiving the counterpart connector.
- the mating direction of the header connector is parallel with the side walls and points away from the bottom wall towards the opening. Therefore the top surface faces in a direction similar as the mating direction.
- Each interface portion comprises a side wall portion that protrudes inwards into the frame in a direction opposite to the mating direction. In other words, a portion of the interface portion is embedded in the frame.
- the side wall portion has an outer side wall surface and an opposing inner side wall surface.
- a lock protrusion transversely protrudes away from the outer side wall surface into the frame in a direction perpendicular to the mating direction.
- the interface portion comprises further of an interior undercut space at least partly defined by the bottom wall and the inner side wall surface.
- the interior undercut space is occupied by a portion of the frame by means of over molding.
- the interior undercut space is filled by means of over molding and forms an integral part of the frame.
- the lock protrusions are over molded and are fully embedded in the frame. A part of the top surface of the frame is therefore higher than the locking protrusions seen in a plane parallel to the mating direction.
- the object of the invention is also solved by means of a method for producing a header connector according to claim 8.
- the method relates to producing a header connector according to one of the above embodiments.
- the method comprises the step of providing at least two interface portions, each interface portion comprising a bottom wall and side walls, the side walls protruding perpendicular away from the bottom wall, the side walls and the bottom wall defining a receptacle with an opening for receiving a counterpart connector, the mating direction of the header connector being parallel with the side walls and pointing away from the bottom wall towards the opening, the side wall portion having an outer side wall surface and an opposing inner side wall surface, wherein a lock protrusion transversely protrudes away from the outer side wall perpendicular to the mating direction and wherein the frame comprises an interior undercut space at least partly defined by the bottom wall and the inner side wall surface; and wherein each interface portion comprises a seal protrusion that protrudes from the bottom wall into the interior undercut space.
- the method further comprises the step of aligning at least two interface portions side by side at a same height level.
- the height level is seen in a plane parallel to the mating direction.
- the method further comprises the step of molding a frame around at least a portion of the at least two interface portions by means of over molding such that a side wall portion protrudes inwards into the frame, and covering by over molding the lock protrusions such that they protrudes into the frame and occupying by over molding the interior undercut space.
- the frame is molded by over molding directly the interface portions.
- assembling the interface portions into the frame is integrated with the injection molding of the frame by over molding the interface portions.
- the locking protrusions being over molded allows a firm locking and keying of the interface portion into the frame while the interior undercut space contributes to consistent and robust mechanical properties.
- the interior undercut space is at a same height level as the lock protrusions.
- the height of the header connector is defined along a direction parallel to the mating direction.
- each interface portion comprises a seal protrusion that protrudes from the bottom wall into the interior undercut space.
- the seal protrusions are provided in the interior undercut space where there is less mechanical and dynamic tension due to an external load on the header connector. In other words, the seal protrusions may be protected against mechanical and dynamic tension which may increase the effectiveness of the seal protrusions. External loads on the header connector are absorbed by the locking protrusions as they provide the keying and locking of the interface portion into with the frame.
- the header connector is provided with multiple seal protrusions having a triangular shape seen in a plane parallel to the mating direction.
- the base of the triangular shape is provided at the bottom surface of the interface portion such that a point of the triangular shape extends into the interior undercut space along a direction parallel to the mating direction.
- the interior undercut space of at least one interface portion defines an elongated groove seen in a plane perpendicular to the mating direction wherein the seal protrusions are elongated inside the elongated groove.
- the seal protrusions are elongated and enclose terminal openings provided in the interface portion seen in a plane perpendicular to the mating direction.
- the seal protrusions are elongated and define a rectangular shape seen in a plane perpendicular to the mating direction (X).
- a locking protrusion of a first interface portion faces a locking protrusion of a second interface portion at a same height level.
- over molding the frame is done by subsequently embedding the at least two interface portions.
- the over molding of the frame starts near a first interface portion and is followed by over molding the frame near a neighboring interface portion.
- each interface portions is over molded one after another starting with the first interface portion and continued with a neighboring interface portion.
- Figure 1a, 1b and 1c show respectively six interface portions A, a frame B with six recesses for receiving said interface portions A and a header connector C according to the prior art.
- any numbers of interface portions with corresponding recesses are possible.
- one, two, three, four or five interface portions with the same respective number of corresponding recesses are possible.
- Figure 1c shows the header connector C comprising the interface portions A and the frame B in an assembled state.
- Such a header connector C and method for producing a header connector C are assembled by means of gluing, ultrasonic welding and/or laser welding.
- Drawback of such techniques is that it requires adhesive material and/or additional special equipment and/or it limits the type of material for the frame and interface portions to have it suitable to be welded.
